About

Chris Finken is an internet marketing expert who’s internet marketing ventures started in 2001 when working for a small search engine in Orem, Utah.  Within a few months of starting his new job, Chris fell in love with internet marketing and the idea that you could sell anything online.  He worked with hundreds of e-commerce website owners to improve their paid search advertising on sites like Overture, Findwhat, ah-ha.com and others.  Over time Chris developed his own strategies for website layout (now called landing page optimization), paid search marketing and search engine optimization.  That foundation grew and grew until Chris was working from home and enjoying every minute of it.

In 2006 he co-founded a new venture called OrangeSoda.com to help bring all of this e-commerce web marketing stuff to localized businesses, businesses that needed more foot traffic, more local awareness and more local business.  OrangeSoda currently serves thousands of small businesses in providing a unique combination of paid search, local maps optimization and search engine optimization to help small businesses across North America get more phone calls, more orders and more customers.

Chris left OrangeSoda in October of 2010 to pursue new ventures in SaaS, ecommerce and small business solutions.  His passion for the online marketplace and simplifying unnecessarily complex business problems keeps him busy, excited and rolling forward.  He also enjoys writing in the third person as it allows him to look at himself in a new light:)
